Year 5 News

From Hilary, Year 5 teacher

 

What is the writer's voice?

Students are focusing on incorporating 'writers voice' into their writing pieces. Writer's voice is about injecting personality, usually through a point of view, or through your characters.

 

Students have been investigating ways in which they can enhance this, including: 

-specific word choice

-punctuation

-sentence structure

-tone

 

Among other prompts and exposure, Year 5 students have thoroughly enjoyed getting into the character of...an inanimate object! Please enjoy a piece on the ever so popular, Starbucks Latte!
